Hi Serena,

In your mailmerge main document, select the date field, press Ctrl-F9 to enclose it in a pair for field braces (eg { 01-05-2010})
and type 'QUOTE' inside the braces, so that you end up with {QUOTE 01-05-2010}. Then run your mailmerge. This will prevent the dates
from updating in the future. It also means a Find/Replace on the dates will work.

Merged letter and made changes to merged letters. Final merged document has
date in field code and atty wants to change it from Jan 5 to Jan 4. She does
search and replace but the date automatically updates on print, even if we
change that setting.
